I loved the area, it's convenient. The creek is beautiful with the sound through the window. The property has so much potential! The staff was so friendly, especially the young man at the front. It is definitely run down, and could use some updates. But the beds were comfy, it was warm and cozy! It was quiet and I had a great sleep!

The property was rundown, it’s an older property that has been minimally maintained. The manager said he would be back at 9 am for check out and we left at 9:30 and he still had. It showed up. There was a homeless encampment across the street, which made the stay a bit uneasy. The room was clean considering the age of the building. This place could definitely use some upkeep .

The owners are awesome and are working hard to better the motel. It is clean and close to everything. This was my second time staying here and I will return. The customer service was great but the customer experience was even better! I was remembered from 2 1/2 months ago and given an upgrade! That makes me want to return!!!

Worst place ever, there are saying to take valuables away from your car.Because a homeless can break into your car. There was a portable air conditioning in the room but no hose. Homeless people was all around. Never going to stay here ever again unsafe,dirty,stinky.

This place was not good, in fact it was disgusting and dirty with a side of sketchy as hell! The second I drove into the lot it was apparent that I made a mistake. I stayed, reluctantly, and left as soon as I could in the morning. Just avoid this place, trust me! The people hanging around outside were sketchy, and a lot of them were probably on sketchy drugs. It was horrible! And I'm really not a picky person! The room wasn't very clean, the floor made my sucks black, the shower was crap and the property did not look well maintained. Apparently there's a pool but I walked along the building and couldn't find it, but probably wouldn't go in just by seeing the building and cleaning standards of the owners. Just do yourself a favour and find another option. This place is horrible

I booked a standard room through Expedia, but despite showing them my confirmation number, they were unable to find my reservation, and had no standard rooms available. I ended up being charged an extra $50 for a "balcony room". Given the error, i should have been given whatever room was available for the price of the standard room. This is a subpar place- not terrible, but not great, which I was expecting. That would have been fine for the original price I paid, but it definitely wasnt worth the extra $50. I'm not sure if the problem was Expedia's or the motel's, but I hope they sort it out so that others aren't put in a similar position.

The motel was clean and comfortable but everything looks tired, including the only apparent staff, who was helpful but apparently responsible for the entire operation.
